Til It Does - Wade Bowen, Randy Rogers

I never told her that I loved her

But I do

She never cried here on my shoulder

If she was hurting, well I never knew

I never saw her leavin' come

Until the goodbye part was through

Now the page has turned, and the lessons learned

And a blind man sees

It don’t happen 'til it does

It don’t hit you 'til it lays you flat

You don’t hear the lone train

'Til you’re tied up on the track

You don’t want the way it is

'Til you’re wishin' for the way it was

That’s how a heartache finds a fool

It don’t happen 'til it does

She always wanted me to want her

Now I will

She always needed me to come home

Now I know how that feels

These days I’m seein' things

That only missin' her reveals

Yeah what’s wrong is wrong, and what’s gone is gone

And it’s gone for good

It don’t happen 'til it does

It don’t hit you 'til it lays you flat

You don’t hear the lone train

'Til you’re tied up on the track

You don’t want the way it is

'Til you’re wishin' for the way it was

That’s how a heartache finds a fool

It don’t happen 'til it does

No you don’t see the warning signs

All 'til it’s tail lights and a cloud of dust

That’s how a heartache finds a fool

It don’t happen 'til it does
